Subject: [PATCH 1/4] blkcg: Drop unnecessary RCU read [un]locks from blkg_conf_prep/finish()

Holding the queue lock now implies RCU read lock, so no need to use
rcu_read_[un]lock() explicitly. This shouldn't cause any behavior changes.

While at it, drop __acquires() annotation on the queue lock too. The
__acquires() part was already out of sync and it doesn't catch anything that
lockdep can't.
